AI Article Synopsis
- Sleep deficiency in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) encompasses poor sleep quality, irregular timing, and inadequate duration, along with other related conditions like insomnia and circadian misalignment.
- The combination of these co-occurring conditions can influence the development, symptoms, and treatment approaches for OSA.
- Research is needed to better understand how OSA interacts with these disorders to enhance patient care and outcomes.
Article Abstract
Sleep deficiency in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) includes abnormal quality, timing and duration of sleep, and the presence of other comorbid conditions. These include insomnia, circadian misalignment disorders, and periodic limb movements of sleep, among others. The co-occurrence of these conditions with OSA likely plays a role in pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and management of OSA. Considering these conditions and their treatment in evaluating sleep deficiency in OSA may help improve patient outcomes. However, future research is needed to understand the intersection between OSA and these disorders.

Kamada Ltd., Rehovot, Israel.
Background: Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT)-deficient individuals have a greater risk for developing COPD than individuals with normal AAT levels.
Methods: This was a double-blind, randomised, parallel group, placebo-controlled trial to examine the safety and tolerability of "Kamada-AAT for Inhalation" (inhaled AAT) in subjects with AAT deficiency, and to explore its effect on AAT and biomarkers in the lung epithelial lining fluid (ELF). 36 patients with severe AAT deficiency were randomised 2:1 to receive 80 mg or 160 mg inhaled AAT or placebo once daily for 12 weeks.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is frequently associated with increased incidence and mortality of pulmonary hypertension (PH). The immune response contributes to pulmonary artery remodeling and OSA-related diseases. The immunologic factors linked to OSA-induced PH are not well understood.

Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston.
Background And Objectives: Rolandic epilepsy (RE), the most common childhood focal epilepsy syndrome, is characterized by a transient period of sleep-activated epileptiform activity in the centrotemporal regions and variable cognitive deficits. Sleep spindles are prominent thalamocortical brain oscillations during sleep that have been mechanistically linked to sleep-dependent memory consolidation in animal models and healthy controls. Sleep spindles are decreased in RE and related sleep-activated epileptic encephalopathies.
